Gabriele Lucchetti Born in Carrara in 1977, he began directing his first short films while attending the Dams University for Performing Arts in Bologna. He later relocated to Rome, where he works both as a director and as a visual effects expert in the field of advertising. His works as a director include video-clips for indie labels and documentaries for Rai Trade. As a VFX specialist he has worked with a number of digital houses based in Rome, specialising in compositing. His works as a director display an approach which favours a more visual component, however never neglecting the narrative aspect, which he believes is essential to communication. He is a founding member of BluzzMedia, acting as a director as well as art director for all projects. An expert in digital technology, he is a contributing writer for IC (Italian Cinematographer), interviewing leading DOPs in Italian cinema and reviewing technological innovations in the field.
